	Ray Wilson (footballer) - Biocrawler
		Wilson kept his England place under new manager Alf Ramsey after the World Cup, and with Ramsey successfully snatching sole responsibility for picking the team from the FA came a firm feeling that Wilson was Ramsey's highest-rated left back.
		Wilson was almost an immediate villain when the game started as he deflected a vicious volley from Wednesday's Jim McCalliog into the net after just four minutes, though McCalliog rightly claimed the goal as his own.
		Wilson was the oldest member of the squad - in his 32nd year - and the victory crowned an especially good year for him, winning a major domestic honour and then adding the biggest prize in the game.

		Had Wilson had his way he wouldn't have appeared in the photograph, and hence also be cast in bronze in a £750,000 statue based on it, which was unveiled in London last year.
		Wilson is as equally bemused by the lifestyles of today's stars, in part because he never lost touch with the real world.
		Ray is long retired, has lost most of his hair, and he walks with a slight limp, the legacy of that knee injury.

	Johnny Byrne - Profile of the English Footballer
		Johnny Byrne is not, perhaps, a widely recognised name among the modern generation of football fans which is not too surprising given that his career only briefly touched the heights for which it seemed destined.
		Johnny Byrne was a talented schoolboy footballer though not recognised as a prodigy.
		Perhaps their were doubts about his temperament, he was already becoming one of football's personalities and was widely recognised by his nickname "Budgie", a reference to his non stop chattering.

	The Scotsman - UK - Footballer to sell his prize possession (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Wilson, who played for Everton, was one of his country’s two full-backs in England’s never-to-be-forgotten 4-2 victory over West Germany in the World Cup final at Wembley Stadium in July 1966.
		He tried his hand at football management, as many famous players do, some with outstanding success, but in Wilson’s case it was not to be and he joined the family firm of undertakers.
		Of his decision to sell his precious medal, Wilson said stoically: "Although it is painful to part with my World Cup winner’s medal, an object full of personal and national nostalgia, I have decided to sell in order to financially provide for my family.

	MILESAGO - Groups & Solo Artists - Ray Brown & The Whispers
		Ray Brown & the Whispers were in the vanguard of the first wave of Australian beat pop, from 1964-67, and during their brief career they were one of the most successful and celebrated bands in the country.
		Ray grew up in Hurstville and left school at the age of fifteen to become a clerk in the Customs Department, but he had a passion for singing and in early 1964 the Nocturnes, who were keen to move into the booming 'beat' style, replaced Bobby with local vocalist Ray.
		A former footballer, Ray was always known for his fit and non-indulging lifetyle, so it came as a great shock to friends and fans when he died suddenly on August 16, 1996 from a heart attack, suffered while he was out walking in Annandale with his sister Rose Butler.

		Ray Wilson and George Cohen were England's immovable full backs throughout the tournament and Jimmy recalls: "I played in the preliminary warm-up games against Yugoslavia and Finland and we ended up winning both matches without conceding a goal and I thought I had played quite well.
		On the subject of Rooney's injury, Jimmy added: "The treatments are much more advanced compared to my day and the fact he is still a young man means the healing process should be quicker.

		Ray Wilson and ten of his England colleagues defeated West Germany in a football match at Wembley to turn themselves into national treasures and bring the World Cup to these shores for the one and only time.
		So would Ray Wilson have been had he been injury free, but he¹d moved on to Oldham Athletic by the time Harry¹s Class of 1970 had conquered England.
		Everyone who had the privilege of seeing him play would probably select him in their all-time Everton XI and, for his part, this football club is still very close to his heart.

		Ray, who was an All-Australian at under-18 level and played senior football with Peel Thunder in the WAFL before arriving at Whitten Oval, was also expected to be the subject of much interest from his home state as his contract neared its end.
		Ray managed seven games, six late in the season, as the club began to plan for the future, but his athleticism and natural skills are expected to quickly make him a key Bulldog midfielder.

		No, this boy was born to be a footballer, and nothing was going to stop him, certainly not his matchstick-man frame, the caste in his eye that made him target practice for all the school bullies, or, indeed, a well-intentioned but peripatetic schoolteacher.
		You were imbued with a sense of privilege if you saw Denis Law on a football pitch, where he wore the DNA of genius on the cuffs of his long sleeves.
		Some footballers are so clumsy they look as if they're trying to control a hand grenade rather than a football.

		His older brother Jeff combined playing football for Fulham with studying for a geography degree at London University; then he went to the Royal Academy of Music and became an opera singer.
		But in those early days Wilson was an inside forward, making little impression, and he was overshadowed by Ken who made his first-team debut at 18, marking Billy Liddell in front of 50,000 at Anfield.
		But Ken was a tough footballer, a centre-half who gave no quarter, unlucky not to play for England where Walter Winterbottom's 2-3-5 formation was very different from the fluid man-to-man marking that Shankly adopted.
